From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Fuck you, Mozilla, it's uglier and tells less about your core product, which is also the only thing you have that makes people tolerate your other stupid decisions.
Also, fuck your "a" in that font. I'd punch that fucking glyph in the face if it spoke to me on the street.
I'm right there with you. Although I might not wait for that glyph to speak 😜
